Quilt Like An Eagle: The Gauntlet is Thrown!

Welcome to the Quilt Like an Eagle Quilt Along! We intend to inspire and motivate you to make that eagle-themed quilt that's been on your quilting bucket list forever. Your QAL hosts are kindred eagle quilt dreamers - we dream about the quilts but have yet to start them!

We're not offering up a specific pattern for everyone to quilt as a group. Instead, our goal is to provide inspiration to get started and motivation to see the inspiration through to a finished project. We will all choose our own style and method of eagle implementation.

If you'd like to quilt along, you're welcome to share inspiration and progress here on the Quilt Like an Eagle (QLAE) blog. Just email one of us (see sidebar) and we'll get you set up to post here.

We'll also be keeping track of links to eagle quilt inspiration to be found on the web. Check out our Links tab above for Pinterest boards and other great sources of eagle quilt ideas. The list will grow as the QAL progresses, so be sure to check for new additions!

Some folks will happily plan and execute their own eagle quilt designs. Others may wish to use commercial patterns. Either choice is fine, but we do ask that you not promote commercial patterns here. Share a link back to the pattern site and dedicate your QLAE posts to the process of making your quilt.

July 4th, 2015 will be the official end date for the Quilt Like an Eagle QAL. We'll plan an online show and share for that date so we can all celebrate our amazing eagle quilts!
